So, does it now use 1 tuner to record back-to-back programmes on the same channel?

So yes a web browser with the ability to search would aid this and give Virgin Media a boots over rials like Sky
It's no small job providing TiVo with modern HTML interpreter and renderer. Of course they could use something like webkit but it quite a job AKAIK.
